Ahead of government’s vehicle safety norms set to kick in 2017, the country’s largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) plans to introduce features like airbags and anti-lock braking system as an option in its mass market models.
The company has already offered these safety features as standard across all variants of its premium car S-Cross and also introduced in the upcoming premium hatchback Baleno.
As per the company’s plans, Maruti Suzuki India is looking to offer the safety features even on entry-level variants of its models, including Alto800 and AltoK10, as an option keeping in mind the price sensitivity of the segment, an official said.
